Self-Storage Talk Online Community Exceeds 2,000 Posts

In less than six months, Self-Storage Talk (www.selfstoragetalk.com), the self-storage industry’s newest online forum and community, has surpassed 2,000 member posts. Launched in January by Inside Self-Storage (ISS), this free, interactive website allows users to share information, ask questions and network with community members.

Site participants discuss a diverse range of industry issues, from day-to-day management challenges to legal questions to construction- and development-related items. Self-Storage Talk also includes state-specific forums in which users can communicate about issues and developments within their local areas, and forums for several countries outside the United States.

Participation involves a simple registration process in which members create a username and password and provide a valid e-mail address. Once registered, they can create new or respond to existing threads on numerous self-storage topics, including customer service, collections, staffing, insurance, financing, software, lien sales, marketing and more. They can also post photos of self-storage projects, highlight facility employees, share tenant horror stories and exchange info on educational resources.

ISS has provided the self-storage industry with publications, tradeshows and education for more than 17 years. In addition to Self-Storage Talk, it operates Inside Self-Storage Expo and the Self-Storage Training Institute. For more information, visit www.insideselfstorage.com.
